Qawale Mini Review

This isn't a mini-review of Qawale. It's a normal review of Qawale Mini, a smaller version of the hit abstract game from Gigamic. That said, it won't be a long one, as it's a quick, light abstract game.

Faraway is one of those games that actually deserves the hype, and deserves its recent As d'Or win.

Sea Salt & Paper Review

Sea Salt & Paper is a great game which now happily nestles in my travel back of 'card games to play anywhere with anyone' along with the likes of Scout and 6 Nimmt.
